Caron - is one of few world perfumery houses which is known for its unique and exclusively created aroma. It is not important, whether you will like it, but many people consider that Caron is as the Bible among the perfumery books.
It is not necessary to neglect classics, if you wish to know, why the perfumery world is exactly so that what we can observe it today. It is necessary to wait patiently and try to taste each novelty from the big four: Caron, Guerlain, Chanel, and Hermes.
Farnesiana (Caron) - is very rare aroma for the several reasons. First of all, it has been created for an exclusive collection of aromas (fountain collection) which can be got only in three boutiques. This aroma will be specially poured for you in the bottle, chosen by you only on an avenue Montaigne in Paris or Madison Avenue in New York.
Secondly, the basic note of aroma is hidden in the flowers of an acacia - it is far not the most ordinary theme in perfumery. Except for Farnesiana (Caron) only Une Fleur de Cassie (Frederic Malle) has the same notes of aroma. But this aroma has been created in XXI century - 54 years after the Caron’s presentation! Half a century between two aromas on one theme… Why have perfumers bypassed it? Whether not therefore, what is better, than Farnesiana, difficult to think up?
This flower aroma starts with a bitterish and oily chord - bitter, rustling and even reminding oil paint. Only 15-20 minutes later almond-vanilla chord, shades of flowers bitterness and aromatic sweet come. It is even possible to smell fresh bitterness of a lily of the valley, gentle violets, shade of jasmine and aldehydes… It is classical beauty without excesses, quiet dim shine of gold brocade and simultaneously ultramodern multigender creation on flower-powder theme.
